BLACK ICE

[Sample] And- and you didn’t even like her, and I would go home and just scream into my pillow… But Tammy Thompson’s a girl? Steve… [Verse 1] It was snowing when we woke up, and we thought of staying home Tell everyone of the Edelweiss, the black ice on the road Christmas around the corner, night cypress in bloom Your brother being born in your grandmother’s room [Chorus] Can you keep a secret without telling a lie? Can you go to bed without saying goodnight? Why do it right when you can do it yourself? And give up [Verse 2] When it rains, I feel like a kid in the car The street lights and the satellites blur with the stars I’d give you my life if you promised to want it Or talk to balloons with your name written on ’em [Chorus] Can you keep a secret without telling a lie? Can you go to bed without saying goodnight? Why do it right when you can do it yourself? And give up, give up, give up [Spoken] Nothing is secret [Refrain] Trying to teleport back through the telephone This airport lounge looks a lot like [Alt. Chorus] Yawning our life away, whispering "sure" I found myself in the clothes on your floor Now I’m spread around, tweaking out Trying to be loved, be loved, be loved [Hook/Chorus] Can you keep a secret without telling a lie? (Give up, be loved, give up, be loved) Can you go to bed without saying goodnight? (Give up, be loved, give up, be loved) Why do it right when you can do it yourself? (Give up, be loved, give up, be loved) And give up, be loved, give up, be loved [Hook/Outro] Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved Give up, be loved, give up, be loved [Spoken] Break out of your beauty By a standard, you weren’t raised right She asked her biochemistry “Stop being you for a bit” Button up into blue Button up into blue [Instrumental Outro] [Sample] Yeah? Oh…
